In Nepal alone, rescuers have recovered 1,341 bodies, with approximately 4,996 still unaccounted for, according to the Foreign Office. The assistance was coordinated by Pakistan's National Disaster Management Authority and delivered by a chartered flight from Islamabad to Kathmandu. The relief package included tents, blankets, mats, hygiene kits, and medicines for affected communities. The send-off ceremony for the aid took place at the Islamabad airport, attended by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Tariq Fazal Chaudhry, Nepal’s Ambassador Rita Dhital, and senior officials from both the Foreign Office and National Disaster Management Authority.
